Togekiss is OU now, and the Max EVs a Pokemon can have is 252, not 242.
Protect on Swampert instead of Stone Edge. And Aura Sphere for Togekiss.
Since togekiss is OU, would I be better running moxie scrafty?
I should also point out the Medichamite is BL right now pending further retesting
I'm aware of medichamite, I'll just keep it on until it's final tier is decided

Trace is the best ability for Porygon2 in my opinion. If you predict right you could end up with an awesome ability in most situations.

I would keep pain split on Cofagrigus instead of rest. I can't tell you how many times I've gotten in a situation where I have been able to use pain split with my Cofagrigus/Dusclops in red health.

You should consider stealth rocks on Swampert, idk if you are using this team on Showdown or in wifi battles but it is worth the trouble in getting it from a gen 5 move tutor.

You seem to have a lot of your IV spreads the same, max in an attacking stat and max in a defensive stat. I would suggest designating 3 for a core and 3 for attacking. In the core you would invest most of your IVs in defenses or hp, and your attackers would have max in a attack stat and max in speed.
If I was using that team my core would be: Cofagrigus, Porygon2, and Swampert, while my sweepers would be Togekiss, Medicham, and Arcanine.

Thank you!! I'm actually not going to use togekiss anymore though because it's gone up to OU. I have a good replacement though

Scrafty
-Drain punch
-Dragon dance/Bulk up
-Hi-jump kick
-Foul play

Don't know about items or EV's or anything for it yet. Maybe a silk scarf or expert belt. I'm also thinking of running 252 sp def/ 252 att/ 4 def. I don't really know though. I've gone against this set using my OU team and I was sweeped  so I know it's powerful, I just don't know if it fits or not. Any ideas?
